Photon polarization measurements without the quantum Zeno effect

V. Kidambi, A. Widom, C. Lerner +1 more

We consider a photon beam incident on a stack of polarizers as an example of a von Neumann projective measurement, theoretically leading to the quantum Zeno effect. The Maxwell theory (which is equivalent to the single-photon Schrödinger equation) describes measured polarization phenomena, but without recourse to the notion of a projective measurement.
